Filet Mignon
This is Kristy's favorite dinner.

2 10oz filet mignon, 1½-inch thick
2 shallots, minced
½ cup white wine
1 tsp lemon juice
4 tbs butter
2 tsp parsley, chopped
salt and pepper to taste

In small saucepan over medium heat, cook shallots in wine and lemon juice until almost all of the liquid has evaporated. Cool completely. Cream cooled shallot mixture, parsley, salt, pepper, and butter in small bowl. Form until a cylinder, wrap is waxed paper, and chill until firm.
Slice thin disk of butter onto one side of filet mignon, broil for 8-9 minutes. Repeat on other side for another 8-9 minutes. Remove from oven and grill over high heat for 1-2 minutes on each side. Plate with a fresh pad of the seasoned butter. Serve with bernaise sauce and steamed asparagus.
